Tips & Advice

What is an endless pool?

Endless pools are a combination of spa, workout station, and relaxation spa, all in a pint-sized pool. Endless pools are meant for exercise and rehabilitation, along with recovery. Endless pools can come equipped with a treadmill for basic walking or running exercises. Some models have adjustable wave machines or swim currents that allow you to swim “against the tide”without ever moving forward. This eliminates the need for a regular-sized pool. Endless pools can also come with hydrotherapy jets for post-workout rehabilitation… or end of the day bliss. Endless pools are generally premanufactured, but you can always have them custom made.

How much does it cost to build an indoor swimming pool?

The cost for an indoor swimming pool might not be as high as you think, and has become a popular alternative to outdoor pools for exercise. However, before you start planning pool parties, understand that, in many cases, average indoor pool is small – roughly 8 feet by 15 feet. How is that possible? Because of the emergence “endless pool” or “pool therapy” technologies. These technologies use adjustable waves or swim currents that a user swims against, without physically moving forward. Think of a gerbil on a wheel, now put that wheel in the pool. Some of these endless pools come equipped with treadmills and therapy jets. Since they are smaller and mostly premanufactured, costs can start around $20,000, provided you have an area that can easily be transformed. Adding an additional room or covering will obviously add to your cost. There are lots of variables, so check the prices on the indoor pool you want and get installation estimates from contractors. Installing larger pools will come with larger costs.

What is an infinity pool?

Infinity pools are one of the most visually stunning pools you can buy. Water flows over the edges of an Infinity pool, giving the illusion there are no edges, and the pool edges “run on into infinity.” Infinity pools are on the higher end of expensive pools. If you want to add the Infinity touch to your pool, you can expect to pay 20 percent or more to the finish of your pool. The base of the pool is standard, usually gunite or cement. It’s the top, with the flow-over-the-edge that separates it from the pack.

What is a fiberglass pool?

A fiberglass pool is a manufactured pool made of fiberglass. The finished mold is transported to the site and installed into the excavated area. Fiberglass is a popular alternative to gunite pools and is usually a cheaper option, but it also gives you fewer choices on sizes, shape and aesthetics.

What is a gunite pool?

Gunite pools start with a rebar-based framework. Once the framework of the pool design is laid out, the contractor sprays the framework with gunite, which is a mixture of cement and sand. The gunite surface is troweled to a smooth surface and then dries and hardens, and you have a new pool. It’s the most popular type of modern pool and is very sturdy and durable. They’re often finished with a type of plaster and or/pebble surfaces and other cool aesthetics, like tile and paint. Gunite offers the most options for size, style, and creativity.

How long does it take to put in a pool?

The time it takes to install a pool can vary, but from the time they break ground, to the time you are diving into the water, is generally four to eight weeks. Factor in excavation; installation or pouring of the foundation, as well as other materials like heaters, pumps and drains; drying time; and proper decking and/or landscaping or decking around the pool. Smaller jobs can be quicker, prefab pools can be faster, but you should be up and running, er, swimming, in the average pool, within eight weeks, give or take.

What is a dipping pool?

Dipping pools are very small pools that are meant for lounging and cooling off in the summer heat. You can get just about any size you want, but they generally aren’t any bigger than a large couch or a hot tub. Dipping pools can be above or in-ground and come in cement, fiberglass or vinyl, with a variety of cool styles. Obviously, being small means the maintenance is much lower than a regular size pool.

How much does it cost to install an in-ground pool?

If you want to build a pool, there are a lot of variables involved, including material and labor cost, landscape and excavation, heating and electrical systems, decks, lights and filtration systems, and diving boards and slides. Costs can escalate quickly so get estimates and know your budget. There are three basic types of materials: concrete (or gunite), vinyl and fiberglass. The basic cost of installation is $50 per square foot. Obviously depth will be a factor – the deeper the pool the more materials and labor. On average, concrete pools are the most expensive, roughly between $50,000- $100,000. Concrete pools can be expensive to operate and maintain, but they are very durable. Vinyl is a popular choice for its durability and low-maintenance cost, with an estimated cost starting at around $35,000-$50,000. Vinyl pools are algae resistant and generally require less chemical maintenance than cement pools. Fiberglass pools are premade shells that are transported to your house and installed. This means fiberglass pools are usually smaller (because of transportation limitations), meaning lower maintenance costs. Expect costs to start, on average, from $50,000-$80,000.
